Dilute hydrochloric acid (HCl) is used, and this fizzes due to the presence of calcium carbonate (CACO3) in limestone
Limestone is the most common one - dolomite is another
Calcite, Limestone, Chalk, Marble. They are all geological forms of calcium carbonate.
the mineral fizzes and gas bubbles come out of it
The mineral fizzes as it releases bubbles of carbon dioxide.
It is most likely to contain the mineral calcite.

Calcite reacts to acid. The best thing to do to determine if a mineral is calcite is to place a drop of dilute hydrochloric acid on a sample. If the mineral fizzes and carbon dioxide bubbles are produced, the mineral is calcite. Place a drop of dilute hydrochloric acid on the mineral. If it fizzes and carbon dioxide bubbles are produced, the mineral is calcite.

Calcite bends light in a certain way: Double refraction (Double image)
diet pop fizzes longer than regular pop(proved by experiment)
It fizzes
